The Train to Tyranny: When ICE Boarded in Montana

An account of ICE on U.S. trains—and the constitutional red line we just crossed

By Dino Alonso

Episode Summary:

This episode is a warning shot.

Not from the future. Not from fiction. But from Montana, this week.

In this deeply unsettling episode, we recount a real and recent event: a federal judge traveling by Amtrak through Montana was confronted with a scene that should chill every American. At a stop in Havre, ICE agents—armed and outfitted in military tactical gear—boarded the train and walked its entire length, questioning every single passenger about their citizenship. No warrant. No probable cause. No individualized suspicion. Just power—unquestioned, unchecked, and now unashamed.

This isn’t border enforcement. It’s the normalization of authoritarian tactics inside the United States. And it’s happening not at the margins—but in the open, in places we've long considered ordinary.

You’ll hear the story. Then you’ll listen to the response. Raw, impassioned, and unapologetically blunt. Because there is no neutral way to process this moment, we are not debating policy—we are confronting a regime. One that governs not through law, but through spectacle, fear, and force.

We trace the legal loophole ICE is exploiting—the so-called "100-mile zone"—and what it means when two-thirds of Americans now live inside a surveillance perimeter most never knew existed. We ask: What happens when government agents start demanding papers without cause? What happens when the Fourth Amendment becomes optional? And most importantly: Where is the outrage?

This episode calls things by their proper names—tyranny, erosion, complicity—and ends with a stark choice facing every American who still believes in the promise of liberty:

Resist, or kneel.
